Dover Hydraulic Elevator at the Austin Surgeon's Building.

SOMEONE TRIED TO RIGHT BEN ABOVE THE DOVER LABEL! In case you didn't know, Ben Dover was the actual creator of Dover Elevators Inc. Right?

[CaptainElevator42189]

Or maybe someone tried to say BEND OVER as a parody, so anyone who rides a Dover elevator would be in for a rude awakening!

[clarkloveselevators]

@CaptainElevator42189 I know! I was kidding, I don't think the guys name was Ben Dover... :D

[CaptainElevator42189]

But that would be funny.

[clarkloveselevators]

@CaptainElevator42189 It sure would be!

[CaptainElevator42189]

Absolutely.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Interesting, and what are your least favorite Dover elevator fixtures?

[bearlovesox]

Probably vandal resistant. I just don't like how they look,though they can be helpful to keep the elevator in good condition.

[CaptainElevator42189]

That's interesting, but I actually like the Signa4 fixtures with the cool looking blue buttons, and even the Vandal Resistant Signa4 fixtures I like a lot.

[bearlovesox]

i don't know why but dover impulse intrests me

[CaptainElevator42189]

Since it's rather high pitched.

[elev8m8]

that buzz sounds sickening

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, but still the 801 West 34th Street elevator's buzzer is still the worst.

[slaidbackjon]

nice elevator, but that buzz sounds like its not feeling well.

Since this elevator was installed in 1987, it must be 21 years old.
